TCM chef Raphael
Food and lifestyle directly affect our body and mind. Understanding the results of what we consume through the eyes, ears, skin, and mouth is a mystery to most. Learn how to make wise personalized adjustments by combining foods and balanced activities to manage health and vitality. I'm a chef specializing in Osteopathic Medicine, helping anyone to learn about the direct link between natural foods and substitutes we consume in a modernized world. My engaging podcasts are fun, fact-based, and challenging. I emphasize current research and demystifying trends that often mislead consumers. We live in a world of highly promoted health claims and often struggle to embrace the simplicity of nature's ambiguous perfection."Living Better Every Day" requires curiosity and knowledge.
And then, I love interviewing friends and clients about their interaction with the super-rich beyond the periphery of this rainbow we call life. The stories of us working in the HNWI households are always eye-opening... and my life is full of them! All within the realm of respect and fun!

Celine Dion SPS - gut microbial and GABA
I'm using the recent confession of Mrs.Celine's dilemma to dive into the gut microbial household. Her admittance that she is suffering from SPS (stiff Person syndrome), a devastating effect not fully understood by modern medicine, could be linked to the damage done by eating an extreme regimen. Working as a private chef and having a good understanding of fusing the wisdom of traditional Chinese medicine with food science: I'm looking at her dilemma from an osteopathic perspective. I can see parallel health issues that derive from choices made to starve a body of essential fuel and then having to substitute with pharmaceutical, chemically designed components that can never fully replace the symbiosis of a healthy digestive tract. Although many consume chemically produced and bioengineered replacements, the end-consumers will never understand the consequences of their choices because of the lack of clear regulations and a controlling pharma machine. GABA is one highlighted product that sounds confusing but is added to plenty of "health products." Maybe this is the first time you learn that this could be the "Aspertam AHA realization" - at least understand how microbes function in your pipes.
